Any thoughts on RxDB?

I'm a fan of RxDB. It makes a lot of sense to combine something like PouchDB with RxJS to create a reactive datastore. The only thing that bothers me a bit about it is the dependency on CouchDB (at least in case you want to have online sync). Not that I have anything against CouchDB (it's a great piece of technology IMO), but it's definitely not suited for all use cases and is in general a lot more restrictive/less powerful than a more general-purpose database like PostgreSQL.

yo this looks interesting. Thanks for posting it. Do you use it? Any thoughts on it and maybe how it compares to Firebase? We currently use firebase but are looking at a few other options.
